Colts GM Ryan Grigson believes Joe Philbin can help make the offensive line "greater than its parts."

"Not only (has Philbin) coached good lines throughout his career, but he’s developed them," Grigson said. "A lot of times the way to greatness at that position is by having those five that just play together and have such great cohesion. That’s what we’re trying to achieve." Philbin did have some success as the assistant and then head offensive line coach in Green Bay, but the Dolphins consistently struggled up front during his tenure. Despite struggling to run the ball and protect the quarterback last season, the Colts appear content to head into 2016 with a similar cast of characters on the offensive line.

Philbin was expected to join Giants HC Ben McAdoo's staff, but talks broke off with QBs coach Mike Sullivan likely getting promoted to offensive coordinator. He's spent most of his career as an OL coach and brings head-coach experience after getting fired from Miami earlier this year. Philbin should help turn around a Colts offensive line that struggled with pass protection in 2015. Fri, Jan 15, 2016 05:56:00 PM

The New York Daily News reports ex-Dolphins coach Joe Philbin is expected to be named the offensive coordinator for the Giants.

New Giants coach Ben McAdoo worked under Philbin in Green Bay, so the two likely have a close relationship. Philbin did not call the plays while he was a coordinator with the Packers, and that will likely continue under McAdoo in New York. Philbin was fired by the Dolphins after a 1-3 start this season.
